Endorphin Elite 2

Wrong. Used these for comrades.

If the road is flat this is a very plush shoes. If the road has any slight camber, ur ankle going to suffer esp if u got glass legs like mine. Suffer on a road which has 30km on a coast road where the road is cambered

Definitely can be fast, and are more stable at quicker paces, but it was just too soft for my liking.

I'm in the same boat. Bought 10.5, and an 11 both are tight. Now can't find the 11.5 anywhere. Super annoying. Did you ever get them in a larger size and did you get in ok with them?

Hi everyone, I’m a 28M, 62kg runner training for a sub-4:50 marathon (current PB 2:57). I have **very wide feet** and need help picking a race day shoe. The Context: I ran my last marathon in the Saucony Endorphin Elite v1 (EU 43) and absolutely loved them. The wide base and aggressive mechanical "pop" were perfect for me. Unfortunately, my pair has 350km+ and I fear it will be dead by race day. I cannot find a fresh pair of v1s in my size anywhere in Europe. To give you an idea of my foot shape, here is what works and what failed: * ✅ **Saucony Endorphin Elite v1 (EU 43):** Perfect fit. * ✅ **Adidas Adizero Evo SL (EU 43 1/3):** Fits great (wide toe box); Also **Adizero SL2** same size * ✅ **Saucony Triumph 21 (EU 42.5):** Good fit. * ❌ **Adidas Boston 12:** I had to return these. Even sizing up, they were painfully narrow for my midfoot/toes. The Dilemma / Current Options: I am looking for a shoe that can handle 3:47/km (6:05/mile) pace without crushing my feet. 1. **Saucony Endorphin Elite 2:** This seems like the logical successor, but I keep reading that the toe box is more tapered/pointy than the v1. Since the v1 was perfect, I’m terrified the v2 will crush my pinky toe at km 30. Does it actually feel narrower? I can't find them in any store to try them out. Also afraid it is way too soft 2. **New Balance SC Elite v5:** I know this is wide-foot friendly (especially the 2E option), but I’m worried about the "pop." The Elite v1 was aggressive and firm. Is the v5 snappy enough for a sub-2:40 effort, or is it too soft/mushy? (i know Alex Yee used this shoe...) 3. **Adidas Adios Pro 4:** Since I fit (& love) the Evo SL, I’m tempted. BUT, given that I hated the Boston 12 width, is the AP4 a lost cause? Is it narrower than the Boston 12? Has anyone with wide feet made the switch from Elite v1 to Elite v2 or SC Elite v5? Thanks!

long run : Salomon aero glide 3 grvl are awesome (similar to triumph 21). 2nd pair already bought the elite 2s and fit ok! bit tight on the front compared to elite 1 but no stock of elite 1 in my region

Has taken me a while to come to grips with them and how they want to be run in. Dislike them for speed work as the rebound throws off my stride quite a lot. However when I lock into a quick threshold pace they are great.

If you are a fan of Saucony the Endorphin Elite 2 is pretty great, I have taken it pat 50km and felt comfy and kept me pushing the whole distance

Saucony for me, completed my first marathon in ES4's and did my first 50km yesterday in Triumph21's both times my feet held up really well. Not to mention I love my EP2's and just bought some Endorphin elite 2's
